BACKGROUND: Evidence about the health effects of ultrafine particles (UFPs) remains limited, especially due to challenges in estimating exposure in epidemiological studies.
Large-cohort imaging and diagnostic studies often assess cardiac function but overlook underlying biological mechanisms. Cardiac digital twins (CDTs) are personalized physics-constrained and physiology-constrained in silico representations, uncoverin...

BACKGROUND:  Myocardial blood flow (MBF) provides important diagnostic information for myocardial ischemia. However, dynamic computed tomography perfusion (CTP) needed for MBF involves multiple exposures, leading to high radiation doses.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review discusses the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in ischemic heart disease (IHD) prevention. It explores advancements of AI in predictive modeling, biomarker discovery, and cardiovascular imaging. ...

This study proposed noninvasive machine-learning models for the detection of lesion-specific ischemia (LSI) in patients with stable angina with intermediate stenosis severity based on coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography. This single-center ...
BACKGROUND: Noninvasive cardiac testing with coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are becoming alternatives to invasive angiography for the evaluation of obstructive coronary artery di...
BACKGROUND: Mortality due to ischemic heart disease (IHD) is heterogeneously distributed globally, and identifying the sites most affected by it is essential in developing strategies to mitigate the impact of the disease, despite the complexity resul...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) is a new invasive indicator of myocardial ischaemia, and its diagnostic performance is as good as the "gold standard" of myocardial ischaemia diagnosis: fractional flow reserve (FFR). iFR...
BACKGROUND: Early recognition, which preferably happens in primary care, is the most important tool to combat cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aims to predict acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and ischemic heart disease (IHD) using Machine Le...
